there is concern absolutely because
teachers haven't been equipped with what
they need in terms of pulling together
that understanding so they need that
support so that they can spot it 66 of
teachers believe they're regularly
receiving work written by AI more than
half want better training in it and 31
want the government to introduce
regulation to police its use a
government spokesperson told us
artificial intelligence has the
potential to transform education and
they've launched an online consultation
on the benefits and risks how to make
the best use of rapidly advancing
technology is a question for school
